Supposed GTA 5 vehicle list 'found in Max Payne 3 source code'

GTAForums user apologises to Rockstar.

A screengrab purported to be a list of vehicles for Grand Theft Auto V has popped up on one of the game's fansites.

As seen here, the list contains 48 cars, five motorbikes, 25 boats, 10 helicopters,one plane and nine trains. Supposedly the file – titled "vehicles.ide" – was found in the source code for Max Payne 3 by GTAForums users Twisted89 and Fantaseb.

The user who posted the code, zzcool, also apologised directly to Rockstar:

"i am sorry for leaking this i never realized how big this was i was just eager to show this too eager i wanted to make a vid of it but i am not going to do that no matter what i get out of it please accept my personal apology"

It certainly looks like code, though it's hard to know how or why the list would end up in the source code for Max Payne 3. Still, stranger things have happened.

Another thing that strikes me as weird is the fact that the list contains 25 boats. Surely that's far more than the game would need? The nine trains make sense as you'd have separate models for different carriages, but the boats are harder to explain.
